Shannyn Wilson



Shannyn Wilson comes to us after being an elementary school teacher working in schools in Cameroon and rural Montana. As a native New Jerseyan who grew up hiking, camping, and exploring National Parks across the country, she brings child-like wonder to birding and is the first one to notify us when a bird is nearby by saying “ooooh… bird”!  We especially appreciate her when she informs us that there is a “big bird.” Her ability to identify birds and native plants present on the Arboretum grounds is growing with every new day. We are excited for you all to meet her because, like us, she is definitely not a regular bird.
